STORY

Not only a beautifully understated accessory, this necklace also symbolizes the power of hope and faith. The Mother of Pearl pendant represents a Bethlehem heritage craft tradition dating back to the 15th century. Artisans in West Bank expertly carve the Mother of Pearl into a cross and then attach it to a pure silver chain. Simple, yet striking, this versatile necklace is the perfect everyday choice or classic finishing touch to that special outfit. A Ten Thousand Villages Exclusive that makes a very special gift.

DETAILS
  • Materials: Mother of Pearl, pure silver chain & clasp
  • Measures: 19"L, Cross: 1.5"H
  • Colors: Silver, white
  • Notes: While pure silver is softer than sterling silver, it is still an excellent choice for jewelry. Due to its softness, it has a beautiful, delicate drape and it tarnishes at a much slower rate than sterling silver. Pure silver is also a great choice for those with sensitive skin; because it is not an alloy it is hypoallergenic.
